Summary description: Parsi typesetting for LaTeX, using LuaTeX engine
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is the first version of the `simurgh' package (a package
for typesetting Parsi in LaTeX, using LuaTeX engine).
The project is dedicated to my Master, Ferdowsi The Great.
Many thanks to all Iranian TeX users for all their
encouragements and kind words over the years; the simurgh
package could not exist without their support over many years.
Finally Sara Eghbali deserves special mention for her moral
support that motivated me to work on this package.
